| description | An ambulatory blood pressure (ABP) or ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) study consists of multiple blood pressure readings for a patient over a period of time, typically 24 hours. ABPM is useful in evaluating patients with variable BP readings in the clinic, with discrepancies between BP readings at home and in the physician's office (i.e. "white coat" hypertension), and to obtain nocturnal BP readings. ABPM reports are used to identify cardiovascular risk and guiding therapeutic decisions. [PMID: 26049213] | ||
